This interactive eLearning module was developed in order for myself to become more familiar with the Rise 360 web-based authoring tool.
Target Audience: Prospective resource parents
Responsibilities: Researcher, Instructional Design , & eLearning Development
Tools Used: Articulate Rise 360 & FreePik.com
Year: 2021
For this project I wanted to try and stretch the skills I developed in the CSU Fullerton Master's program by learning a new authoring program. I selected Articulate Rise 360 as it is very different than what I used in school and thought it would be a good chance to expand my skill set. I chose to develop an eLearning module on how to become a resource parent for a few reasons:
Since I was new to learning Rise 360 I didn't wanted to develop content I was unfamiliar with so that I could focus my attention on development rather than research and development.
For the first phase of development I created a brief outline of the content - History of Foster Care, Overview of the Resource Parent Approval Process, and Resources. While I am familiar with the process I utilized the information available on the Los Angeles Department of Children and Family Services to fill in any gaps in my knowledge. Once the outline had been finalized followed this process to develop the module:
Once this phase of development was completed I reviewed the module for any bugs and asked ten instructional designers that I collaborate with to review the module.
Overall, I found Rise 360 to be an easy authoring software program to learn. The program has the user create "blocks" for the content and the user simply needs to input the content for their module. What I really liked about the completed product is that it is very modern and works easily on a number of devices (i.e., smart phones, lab tops, and tablets) without causing issuing during development.
Here are a few key takeaways after using Rise 360:
